JUST ANNOUNCED October 2020:
CASS Winery was named the 2020 Winery of the Year by the 18th annual Central Coast Wine Competition (CCWC). This is the third Winery of the Year award earned under the creativity of Sterling Kragten, aged 34. As head winemaker and millennial, Sterling led CASS to win this honor in 2015 and 2018, making it the first time a winery has won the award three times.
In reference to the Rhône and Bordeaux varietals that Sterling plays with daily, he is excited to see less typical vines grab some notoriety. ”I love the fact that the more obscure varietals are garnering so much attention! Two years ago the Cass 2016 Mourvedre was best overall red. Now, the MR BLANC, being a Marsanne Roussanne based blend, wins best overall white wine. These are two varietals that most people have probably never tried."
Bonus: All 18 Wines submitted medaled!
“I am very humbled that CASS wines are so well received. Winning Central Coast Winery of the Year for a third time in five years is a testament to the dedication of quality that the whole team at Cass has,” says Sterling. “This, of course, starts in the vineyard with the team paying attention to what the individual blocks and varietals need, to putting in extra effort toward being a Certified California Sustainable Vineyard. This dedication carries over in the winery to showcase CASS Vineyards through small lot fermentation and hand selection of every single barrel, to which wine it will be blended to.”
Description:
Cass Vineyard and Winery is located in the rolling, oak-studded hills between Paso Robles and Creston on California’s beautiful Central Coast. This area that the vineyard calls home offers quiet serenity for the visitor and an ideal growing environment for wine grapes.
Sited due east of the “Templeton Gap”, we receive the evening’s cooling breezes that the west side of Paso Robles is noted for. We also rest far enough from the coast to generate the heat needed to optimally ripen the Rhone varieties grown on our 145 acre estate vineyard.
Cass’ Executive Chef offers a variety of food paring options to accompany our wine tasting 7 days a week from 11-5 p.m. Great wine pairs best with two aspects of life…great food and great times. We attempt to accomplish this pairing at Cass Winery through our many events. Our full service commercial kitchen and Executive Chef are able to create innovative gourmet meals for our unique winery events and your private parties. Whatever the size of your party, we will ensure that the event will be truly a memorable wine-country experience.
